Introducing the Women in STEM Idea Exchange Summits

The war for talent is on. By 2018 there will be a skills
shortage of over a quarter million STEM workers.

To help you meet this challenge, we are excited to introduce the Women in STEM Idea
Exchange Summits.

The Women in STEM Idea Exchange Summits afford corporations the
opportunity to make one-to-one connections with potential employees, feed
the pipelines for their mentoring and internship programs, maximize
ROI of K-12 STEM investments, increase STEM retention rates, as well as
promote their internal initiatives in support of women in the workplace.

Women in STEM professions, make your mark. Share stories and strategies with
each other and engage in meaningful dialog about how you can help fill the
pipeline of women employees at your company today and in the future.

"The Women in STEM Idea Exchange Summits are a
significant addition to the STEM movement and will help increase student
engagement with corporations and mentors who are able to
inspire greater interest among women in STEM fields." -- Julie
Kantor, Chief Partnership Officer, STEMconnector, Million Women Mentors

These Summits provide a unique opportunity for college students to learn about
internships, mentoring programs and the varied types of jobs that are available
to STEM educated young women within specific companies.
